977820 divided by 23 
We want to figure out the number of times 977820 can be divided by 23.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 23 fits into 9 0 times, leaving a remainder of 9.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 0 from 9.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 23

Step 2:
23 goes into 97 4 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 5 after subtracting 92 from 97.
Fetch the next digit (7) from the dividend, attach it to 5 and continue: 57 / 23

Let's proceed to step 3:
23 goes into 57 2 times with a remainder of 11.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42.0
Subtracting 46 from 57 leaves us with 11.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 11, then carry on: 118 / 23

Let's proceed to step 4:
The number 23 fits into 118 5 times, leaving a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 425.0
Subtracting 115 from 118 leaves us with 3.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 3 and repeat the process: 32 / 23

Advancing to step 5:
When dividing 32 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 9.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4251.0
Subtracting 23 from 32 leaves us with 9.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 9 and repeat the process: 90 / 23

Going ahead to step 6:
23 can be fit into 90 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42513.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 69 from 90.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 7:
210 divided by 23 is 9 with a remainder of 3.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42513.9
Subtract 207 from 210 to get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
23 goes into 30 1 times with a remainder of 7.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42513.91
If we take 23 away from 30, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Step 9:
70 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 1.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 42513.913
Subtracting 69 from 70 leaves us with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 10:
23 can be fit into 10 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 42513.913
Subtracting 0 from 10 leaves us with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
100 divided by 23 is 4 with a remainder of 8.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 42513.91304
If we take 92 away from 100, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 12:
80 divided by 23 is 3 with a remainder of 11.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 42513.913043
If we subtract 69 from 80, we get 11.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 110, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
When dividing 110 by 23, we get 4 with a remainder of 18.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 42513.9130434
If we subtract 92 from 110, we get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Step 14:
The number 23 fits into 180 7 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 42513.91304347
If we take 161 away from 180, we end up with 19.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 190, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 42513.91304347, with a leftover of 1.9e-08.
